Santorum Bashes Cruz: 'He Did More Harm'

Appearing on NBC’s Meet the Press, former Pennsylvania Senator and 2012 presidential candidate Rick Santorum bashed Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX), saying that Cruz’s crusade against Obamacare had ben counterproductive. “I would say in the end, he did more harm. I think it was not his objective,” Santorum said.

 

He continued: “I think his objective was a laudable one. I think he didn’t do a very good job of planning it out. I think it’s one thing to have a goal and another thing to have a plan to get you to that goal…Unlike the Democratic party who has a leader, has the president, there isn’t a leader in the Republican Party right now. That’s part of the problem. That’s part of the mess and the confusion. But that’s always the way it is with a party out of power. You have lots of different faces and those faces, as we’ve seen, they come and they go.”
